TIMEALERTS 
15:57Support is 856, resistance is 880

 
15:56Does not look like we will hit my eye-ball target of 870

 
15:54We have a reversal right at the close. We will see how that works out at the open tomorrow.

 
15:51We have broken away from the trendline. Good. Hopefully we will not have to deal with that tomorrow.

 
15:44A move below 840 is possible.

 
15:43Support at 848. I expect something lower

 
15:36At least I had the satisfaction of being right; it did hit the trendline.

 
15:35Now it hit the trendline. does it go below? I am putting a stop at 837.5

 
15:35I am out. profit 0

 
15:34Remember, no new trades after 15:45

 
15:32The trendline rules.

 
15:31I can see a new low before the close.

 
15:27In at 837.5

 
15:27I just know that trendline is going to get hit.

 
15:26I am going short at the market.

 
15:25We got stopped out for a loss of -3

 
15:25This is not behaving correctly. We are in a risky play here.

 
15:23852 looks doable.

 
15:22OK. Im long @ 844

 
15:21If we bounce off 842 again, a short play to pick up 10 points might make sense. But there is no reversal here.

 
15:19I still need to see some separation from that trendline before I would feel comfortable taking a position. In this case it would be a move above 844.

 
15:19I still need to see some separation from that trendline before I would feel comfortable taking a position. In this case it would be a move above 844.

 
15:17If it is going to reverse, it will be in the next 3 minutes

 
15:14Looks like we have two reversals. One at 15:10 and one at 15:20
A drop from the 15:10 to 15:20 could trigger a BUY. We will watch.

 
15:10There is a reversal at 15:12. The way things are going, it might be a SELL.

 
14:9Go a a 2-minute chart of the SPX. Draw a trendline from yesterday at12:48 through 14:20 high. You will notice we have been bouncing around this line all day.
Look like a double bottom might be forming right now.

 
14:6We still have a chance of a double bottom in the next 20 minutes.

 
14:5STOPPED OUT 838 PROFIT 0

 
14:4We have to get above 842 in the next few minutes.

 
14:36Have to step out for a few minutes. Still looking to Buy @ 844

 
14:30Above the line, below the line, above the line, below the line.
Still looking to Buy @ 844

 
14:3Enter Stop @ 838

 
14:25** BUY @ 844


 
14:21The Morning Star on the NDX did complete it formation.

 
14:20Odd. No reversals for the next 2 hours. The market could move big time here.

 
14:18I am not even going to consider a Buy here unless we get to 844.

 
14:17Still have not broken that darn trendline.

 
14:14
The 15-minute NDX shows a morning star forming, not complete yet.

 
14:13Sure looks like a double bottom to me. Maybe if we can break that trendline, I might consider a play.

 
14:11I do not think I will play the double bottom. It will most likely bounce off the trendline like our reversal did.

 
13:8** BUY @ 849

 
13:7Cannot afford not to play this one.

 
13:7This is such a good setup for a bounce.

 
13:57We are in @ 838

 
13:55** BUY @ 838

 
13:54We should have caught this drop; there was a nice triangle setup I did not see. Darn. :-(

 
13:34A move to 838 is possible as I believe we will have a double bottom on the 2-mintue chart. That last reversal time was strong, I expect it will still have an effect on the market.

 
13:28Cancel the BUY. It is taking too long. Our 5 minutes are up.

 
13:27The 14:00 is now a major reversal.

 
13:25A nother reversal is setting up for 14:00

 
13:20Must turn around in the next 5 minutes.

 
13:2Reversal time is 13:10

 
13:18If we move below 840, the trade is off.

 
13:17This will be a reversal from the high today. It could take a few minutes start moving in the right direction.

 
13:16Move entry price to 846

 
13:15Still looking to get in.

 
13:12I can see a move up to 858

 
12:8Well, we broke above 864 finally. This should be down for alittle while, but remember all those candles pointing up.
Next reversal at 12:30

 
12:49We got to 849. Could go a little lower here. No near term reversals.

 
12:42Most candles have now turned negative.

 
12:36There is support in the 849 area.

 
12:35Minor reversal right now. I do not expect much out of it. Major reversal forming around 13:30

 
12:34Not strong enough. Just watching here. The 12:06 reversal took us lower.

 
12:18Strong support at the 861 level.

 
11:7Trend is moving up right before the reversal. That would indicate a further drop.

 
11:59If the 12:06 reversal sends us up, there is no resistance till 872

 
11:58Recent reversal times: 11:48, 11:56, 12:06
Check out the 1-minute chart.
Just too many reversal in too short of a time span.

 
11:55Candles on multiple indexes are pointing up for the next hour.

 
11:54If you did not take a point or two profit, you were stopped out for a los of -3 points.

 
11:53.OXBKL is selling for $1.00

 
11:51I am eye-balling the 870 area as a target later today.

 
11:50Indicators are building on the plus side. Sometime over the next 2 hours, we should move higher. An option might be a good play here. As for the current short position, I think it is going to fizzle. That a point or two profit.

 
11:5Currently there is not another reversal till the 11:45 area. A rally started now could be a good one.

 
11:45The exact reversal time was 11:38.

 
11:42853 is the target right now.

 
11:41** SELL @ 860

 
11:38I want some confirmation.

 
11:37Notice I am not reommending a position here. I have lost some confidence. Waiting to get it back.

 
11:36861 should be the high here.

 
11:35Yup, we got a clustered reversal. We should be going south.


 
11:34The whole 11:35 to 11:45 area is looking like a reversal to the downside.

 
11:33I did not want to see a move up into the reversal time. Just watching now.


 
11:3Could go as low as 851. Oops. I see we just dropped to 852.


 
11:27If I am right, that would put us in the 852 area around 11:35

 
11:26I think we might see a double bottom on the 2-minute chart, and a breakout at 11:36


 
11:24** STOPPED OUT 855 PRFIT -1


 
11:22Move Stop to 855.

 
11:21I want to exit this trade. Something does not feel right. The move is taking too long to appear.

 
11:2If we move down into the reversal at 11:08, we buy again.

 
11:16We are in at 856

 
11:14I am feeling uncomfortable. Still a good chance this could go south.

 
11:12If we get in at 856, target is 868

 
11:10We might have to change direction and go short. Stand by.


 
11:10** BUY @ 856

 
11:1** STOPPED OUT 856 PRFIT -3


 
10:9Reversal must happen in the next 5 minutes.

 
10:8** BUY @ 848

 
10:7This one should send us up.
** BUY @ 851

 
10:59Reversal at 11:08.

 
10:55Might be tough to get through 862

 
10:55In at 859

 
10:52If we do not get to 859 in the next 5 minutes, cancel.

 
10:51** BUY @ 859

 
10:49Looks like rally will resume at the reversal time.

 
10:40Hopefully you notice I posted it at 10:36. Duh.

 
10:4Bingo! 848 in exactly 10 minutes.

 
10:39MISTAKE! THAT NEXT REVERSAL IS 10:52 NOT 10:30. SORRY! I MISREAD IT.

 
10:38We should get back to the 854 level at some point.

 
10:36Next reversal is 10:30

 
10:33WOW! Hope some of you are smarter than me, and you are still riding this rally. You would be up almost 20 points.

 
10:3This one is strong than the last one. We could have a play here.

 
10:28There is resistance in the 860 area.

 
10:24** STOPPED OUT AT 857 PROFIT +9

 
10:22This mini rally is going to have to stop to catch its breath real soon.

 
10:21Your Stop should be at 857

 
10:2Another reversal at 10:15 has formed.

 
10:19858 is possible. Keep working those Stops.

 
10:18Bingo! 854

 
10:16That one came out of no place. It is not too strong, we might get through it without being stopped out.

 
10:15We are hitting another reversal right now.

 
10:13Move stop to 848

 
10:12I would like to see 854 at least.

 
10:12We are in at 848.

 
10:0The important thing is that we did get a minor reversal.

 
09:59850 may be as low as we go here.

 
09:53Can we get to 848 in the next 10 minutes?

 
09:52It is 09:52 and the SPX is at 856

 
09:51A little hard to call this one, it started moving up a few minutes before the reversal.
That would indicator a further drop down.

 
09:47It is a little to early for me to make a call here, and the reversal is nothing too specail. We will just watch what happens. And it should move up.

 
09:44The 09:52 is getting clearer. It is 09:52 give or take one minute.

 
09:35There is a reversal at 09:52. I should say, in the 09:52 area give or take 5 mintues. It is not very clear at this point.

 
09:31Good morning!

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN; IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM. ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK OF ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT TRADING RESULTS.

Futures trading is complex and carries the risk of substantial losses. It is not suitable for all investors. The ability to withstand losses and to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can adversely affect investor returns.
